Tour molto bello, pur essendo fine gennaio E quindi bassa stagione, eravamo un bel gruppetto! È necessario abbonamento mezzi zona A-B. Si fanno molte tappe e si fa un salto nella storia rivivendo i 30 anni di muro. Molto interessante per avere una panoramica generale e poi magari pianificare alcuni approfondimenti in area specifiche o in musei tematici

Rodrigo fue nuestro guía y estuvimos solos porque la otra pareja que tenía reserva no se presentó. Este chico es encantador! Conoce muchísimo la ciudad y cualquier pregunta te la resuelve. Entiende muchísimo de historia y nos encantó su recorrido así como su forma de explicar. Nos gusta mucho la historia y Rodrigo es de los nuestros! Si volvemos a Berlín, ojalá volver a coincidir con él.

Très bonne visite guidée qui permet de connaître l'histoire parfois cachée de la ville, son histoire et son architecture en lien avec l'histoire du mur de Berlin. La guide que nous avons eu été très sympathique et répondait à toutes nos questions.
